Weinland schweiz: A lot is happening with Swiss red wines
Switzerland produces a wide variety of red wines, and due to the topography and the different microclimates in the individual regions, the style of the wines varies depending on their origin. From
Merlot, about
Gamay up to the
Pinot Noir or as also called
Pinot Noirthese are the most common grape varieties.
Viticulture in Switzerland accounts for only a small proportion of global production, which is why many Swiss wines are mainly produced on the
domestic market are consumed. A small proportion is also exported, mainly to neighbouring countries such as Germany, France and Italy.
One particular aspect of the Swiss wine market is that many wines are not available on the free market due to the limited supply.
